We had unprotected sex once (I hadn't been expecting to sleep with him b/c I had actually planned on breaking up with him that day, but that's a seperate issue), but I took Plan B. We had sex again three days later (used a condom, it came off as he was pulling out) and I got my regular period afterwards.
About two weeks ago I got sick, with a bug that's been going around at my college (symptoms were: relatively high fever for a day, protracted general fatigue, plus congestion/head cold symptoms). I am feeling ok now, but I did have sex with my bf the day before I came down with the fever (again, used a condom). He also gave me oral sex a few days after the fever. He got mildy sick with the same bug, but was fine after four days.
Then we had sex about a week ago, but I'm having a hard time remembering the exact date. It was about five days after my period ended, I think. I was still kind of fatigued from being sick and I actually made him stop before he was finished, because I was tired and my leg was cramping. He wore a condom that time, too.
We haven't had sex since. I've actually been avoiding him, I'm once again thinking of breaking up with him. But I've been kind of moody lately. I was experiencing mood swings since before I got sick, and I think that's in part due to the fact that I am undecided about my guy and whether I want to be with him.
But anyway for the last couple of days, I've been pretty unpredictable and moody... Then this morning I was lying in bed at about 9 am (it's spring break so I have nowhere to be) and I suddenly felt completely nauseous. I ran to the bathroom but didn't throw up.
My period isn't due for about another 3 weeks (it's generally pretty irregular), but I'm having a bit of nervous reaction to the fact that I just randomly (?) felt nauseous... Another fact I should mention is that I've eaten a lot of carrots over the past two days, it's almost like I've been craving them. Which is unusual for me.
So my possible symptoms, approx. one week after cut-short sex, are: mood swings (that I was already experiencing), cravings for carrots (aren't cravings usually much further down the road in pregancies?), and a general panicky feeling about the fact that I might be pregnant.The whole panic feeling is also partially due to the fact that my parents don't even know I'm with anyone (which is remarkable, considering the fact that I live at home) and I'm pretty sure their reaction to me being pregnant wouldn't be a pretty sight. Actually, I literally haven't told anyone, not even my best friends, that I'm sleeping with my bf... Most ppl don't even know about him at all (it's a long, complicated story).
I possibly have mono which could contribute to the messed-up state of my body... I got it before I even met my bf and I have doing pretty well with it if that's what it is... In retrospect, my bf and I have been pretty stupid b/c he is of course totally vulnerable to that through me, although he does seem to have a remarkably strong immune system...
Anyway, my point is, is it too early to tell if I am pregnant? I tend to have irregular periods so it will be about 3 weeks before I can be sure whether I've missed it or not.

So, your symptoms are:
- Mood swings
- Craving carrots
- Panicking about being pregnant.
Those sound like the symptoms of stress to me, not the early symptoms of being pregnant. Those would be more like nausea, needing to pee more often, tender breasts, cramps in your abdomen, a bloated abdomen, fatigue, etc.
I would advise you to wait until your period is due and then to take a test, to set your mind at rest if nothing else. Get tested for mono for sure. And while you're at it, ask your doctor about more permanent birth control options so you don't have to worry next time.

Maybe you should think about getting on the pill?

Well they are definitely not.
My daughter who is 27 had sex with her BF on Feb. 17th On Feb 20 she was so sick and so nauseous with cramping cuz she was due for her period
We found out she was pregnant on MARCH 3RD.
she WENT TO THE DOC TODAY AND YES SHE IS JUST ABOUT 3 WEEKS PREGNANT. sHE HAD ALL THE SYMPTOMS THE DAY AFTER CONCIEVING, AND WE NEVER THOUGHT OF PREGNANCY BECAUSE SHE WAS NOT TRYING AND THIS IS A NEW GUY IN HER LIFE..SO THE WHOLE THING NEVER ENTERED HER HEAD!!!
What I thought was a myth is as true as the sky is blue...and I have a daughter to prove it!!
